--==_Exmh_1216908945P Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Hi mobiles-- According to the mailing list archives, Dave Crane <dave@trig.net> posted a query to this list about two months ago, asking about why there wasn't an entry in /etc/defaults/rc.conf for the removable_interfaces variable and, presumably, a corresponding entry in the manpage. (No one replied, but that's not my point.) Having just wasted an hour figuring out that I needed to tweak this variable (apparently Dave is much smarter than I am, since according to his email, he only needed a few minutes to get over this hurdle :-p), and wanting to save future generations some frustration, I present the following patch against -STABLE, which apparently applies to -CURRENT as well. Any objections to my commiting this -CURRENT, as a possible MFC candidate? Bruce.
